Learning Until It Becomes One's Own

English translation

Mencius said, “A noble person pursues learning deeply by the proper way, hoping to grasp it personally. Once it is grasped for oneself, one can settle securely in it; once settled securely, one’s resources grow deep; with deep resources, one can draw on them freely and find their source at every turn. Thus a noble person wants the learner to attain understanding for himself.”
